Meeting 68 - July 2018

Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Field Theory - What do they mean and what can they do for us? ~ Prof. Claudia Eberlein Univ of Sussex

Professor Eberlein will give a brief introduction to the underlying concepts of quantum theory, explain some of its perceived "weirdness" , and discuss its most common applications in both modern science and everyday life. While not the right person to discuss detailed astronomical and cosmological applications, she will point out what they are (and who else to invite for future talks). Professor Eberlein is happy to work very interactively with the audience and give more attention to questions of particular interest.
